Turkey: 2,800-Yearr-Old Greek “Agora” Unearthed at Ancient Troy Site! (11.9.2026)

Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Reyhan Korpe, deputy head of the excavations, said the discovery proves Troy wasn’t permanently abandoned after the Bronze Age, solving a long-standing puzzle about how the legendary city became the later Greek city of Ilion.

Korpe said the discovery is part of a dedicated research initiative launched in 2014 to map the connection between Bronze Age Troy and the subsequent city of Ilion.

Archaeological findings show that after the civilization collapsed, the site was left empty for only 80-90 years before new settlers arrived. Rather than starting over, they built their homes atop the ancient stone walls and continued using the old public square as an agora.

Iran: IRGC Navy Captures US [Unmanned] “Saildrone Explorer” Submarine! (11.9.2026)

The US has become trapped in a game it cannot win without drastically changing the battlefield – which it seems unable to do. Iran has achieved this impasse through sound (material) thinking and planning. It is not because of any divine assistance or godly help. It is a further irony that many commentators in the Middle East believe that this meticulous planning and preparation on the material plane just manifested “out-of-nothing”. It “just appeared” – which of course it did not. It was exactly because of a sound material approach to reality that Iran has achieved (so far) what it has. Of course, as a person of mature years, I do not view a “flying drone” to be an “enemy aeroplane” – or a “submergible drone” to be a legitimate “submarine”. Genuine “Submarines” are what my (maternal) grandfather defended against during WWII (Nazi German U-Boats). I have found footage of this US Submarine apparently reported “captured” in the Western media. It is true, the Iranians have captured a submergible US drone termed a “submarine” – attempting to enter the Iranian controlled Straits of Hurmuz. This is yet another military and media humiliation for the US. This is a product of sound material analysis and planning.
